We derive a closed-form expression for the spatial fading correlation (SFC) between two arbitrary points in 3D-space for the uniform limited azimuth-elevation angle of arrival probability density function (pdf). This expression simplifies the computation of the SFC, can be used in any 3D antenna array geometry, and avoids the need to generate separate expressions for specific antenna array geometries. We corroborate the accuracy of the closed-form expression through application to 2D and 3D antenna array geometries. We expect the results presented in this letter to be of significant importance for performance evaluation and sensitivity analysis in multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems.
